What made him leave has not destroyed him yet.
Lets hope the next few years don't do him in.
Beautiful!

This one has that certain something which makes it really special. Maybe it's the light, or the smoke, whatever it is it's yet another great portrait from you.

That light is awesome! I hope he leaves before he does become like your older subjects.

He doesn't look as sad as most of your subjects. He looks....well- content.

Thanks!!! :))

TrontoStreet, EmpressCam: Thanks! Cropped out the hand and fixed the contrast :)

TorontoStreet says:

I like it all, but i can help but think that the image has been PS'd because the light doesn't look natural. IMO I would have cropped the left side into the head a bit.....

As always, Tomas, a great encapsulation of the person. Hope these guys have someplace to go back to when the adventure starts to wear thin.

The hand doesn't quite look right to me?

I like that you found some young people too tho :)

I work with young homeless people and I think they often get overlooked.
